Agricultural UEpartmGut,
Manual training lias taken a strong
hold upon the affections of the people.
They appear to have made up their
minds to the fact that the cultivation
of head and hand should go togeth
er,
A good way to ventilate a roota is
to raise the window on the windward
side a few inches, and close the open
ing at the bottom with a piece of a
board cut to fit it. A current of air
will pass into the room in an upward
direction, through the opening be
tween the upper and lower sashes,
without creating any draught.
Frost and Fruit.
‘Ts the fruit crop damaged?'’is the
question propounded to every man
who drops in from the country. So
far ns heard from the frost. 1ms bit
deeply into the crop. In the Warrior
district, where there is quite a large
acreage in fruit, of all kinds, the re
port comes in that damage is great.
Round about town the peach trees
have suffered. Colonel Cltas. J. Har
ris, who 1ms something of an orchard,
and who lives in the suburbs und on
a hill, where naturally the frost would
fall lightly, thinks he will gather
about a third of a crop.—Macon Tele
graph.
Good Tillage.
Start out in this season's work with
the resolve that what you do, you
will do well. That your work shall
be first class.
Thorough tillage of the ground
from tlie beginning, will ward off \jalf
of the troubles of wet and dry, of heat
and cold.
Crops will often come in spite of
every adverse circumstance of the
season, if the ground has been pre
pared thoroughly in the beginning
and the work lias not been slighted at
any other period of its need.
Hard Times.
f The best way to weather the hard
times is to watch and work.
Watch yourself, that the substanee
does not leak away in little extrava
gances.
Bad or useless habits.
Hiring others to do vour work while
you are lounging in idleness.
Permitting your hay and grain to
be fed carelessly and extravagantly,
and taking no note of it.
Stock half tended, and markets
neglected.
Watch all these things and many
similar ones, and work faithfullly and
hard times will be remedied.
Be Ready.
Do not let the Spring open and you
be unprepared for it. Two or three
favorable days may come, and if they
are not improved, two weeks of un
favorable weather may follow.
Thus you will be thrown back large
ly in your calculations, and ultliougli
you may have plenty to do during
tha time of waiting, yet it will not be
in the right direction.
The time lost in the beginning will
not be recovered during tlie entire
season. In the winding up you will
find yourself just so far behind hand.
Be ready for the first days fuvora
ble to your work.
Made His Knife Whittle Steel.
Washington Star.
Two Kentuckians—one of them a
blacksmith—recently called at tlie
Navy Department and announced
that they lmd discovered a process of
treating steel which would practical
ly revolutionize the art of steel tool-
making. They did not divulge Hie
nature of the intention further than
to intimate that it ielated to the
chemical bath in which ihe tool is
immersed in the tampering process.
The callers asserted that by their
method of treatment the commonest
grades of metal can be so tempered in
the matter of hardness and toughness
as to fully equal the best grades of
tool steel. An ordinary pair of cheap
cast-steel Hcissors could bo treated
without disconnecting the blades so
as to cut and hold an edge as well as
the best English tool-steel shears.
An experiment was made on the
blade of Secretary Whitney’s pocket-
knife, with the result that it was
possible to whittle an ordinary steei
key without apparent injury to the
blade. Moreover the results Of the
treatment are asserted to be so under
control that it is possible to temper
steel to any degree of hardness or
toughness required, After consulta
tion with tlie Chief of Bureau of Ord
nance the Secretary decided to permit
the progress to be tested experimen
tally at the Washington navy-yard,
and the experiments have already
been begun.
“No Physic, Sir, in Mine!”
A good story comes from a boys’
boarding-school in “Jersey.” The diet
was monotonous and constipating,
and the learned Principal decided to
introduce some old-style physic in the
apple-sauce, and await the happy re
sults. One bright lad, the smartest in
sciiool, discovered the secret mine in
his sauce, and pushing back his plate,
shouted to the pedagogue, “No phys
ic, sir, in mine. My dad told me to
use nuthin’ but Dr. Pierce’s ‘Pleasant
Purgative Pellets,’ and they are a
doing their duty like a charm!” They
are anti-bilious, and purely vegeta
ble.
Phkparkd for Anything in this
Country.—The actors in Miss For-
tescue’s company are telling a rather
amusing stdry about that lady's sister
who i9 traveling with the organiza
tion. When they were playing re
cently in Buffalo, the younger Miss
Fortescue came on Wednesday morn
ing to see tlie manager, and expressed
a desire to run down that afternoon
witli her mother und visit Niagara
Falls. The manager was ufruid some
unforseen delay might occur to pre
vent the lady’s return in time for tlie
evenings performance, and he said :
“It would be quite useless for you
to go to-day. The fallsare not visible
on Wednesdays.”
2 “Indeed! And why not?"
“They always turn the water off on
Wednesdays.”
“How extraordinary,” responded
Miss Fortescue, and went away quite
satisfied with the explanation.

Ben Jonoj was. a capital fellow,
But bo was so confoundedly sallow 1
That his friends all forsook him.
E’en his sweet heart she shook him,
Which made poor Ben loudly bellow.

Who told him to take SMITH’S BILE

And now he’s as rosy, as any pink posey,
And has married a woman of means.

Some youug men were asking the
Rev. lli\ Philips Brooks about “white
lies” tlie other day. “Suppose asked
one, “you were iuvited to|inspect a
certain picture which tho artist lmd
worked hard upon and valued highly,
and he wanted to know your honest
opinion of its merits, and you could
see nothing whatever to praise in
it, what should you do?” "Well,”
said Dr. Brooks, at once, “I will tell
you. 1 should say just what I do
to mothers who bring their babies
to me to be admired. I always say,
whether they are pretty or ugly, ‘Oh’
that is a baby!’ leaving the mother
perfectly convinced that it is the only
baby in the world, and myself utter
ly uncommitted. I should say tlie
same thing when I saw the picture.
